Veolia Environmental Services
website | Company information

Veolia Environmental Services is pleased to announce that its Recyclepak containers for compact fluorescent lamps can be shipped via the United States Postal Service.

Because CFLs contain small amounts of mercury, they should be properly recycled. The program is completely pre-paid and includes the recycling container, protective poly liner and easy to follow instructions for return shipping and recycling.

When ready for recycling, consumers can now give the package to any letter carrier or bring it to any of the more than 37,000 USPS postal facilities for shipping.
